The Beinecke Scholarship Program provides substantial scholarships for the graduate education of young men and women of exceptional promise.

Each year approximately 135 colleges and universities are invited to nominate a student for a Beinecke Scholarship, and up to 20 new scholarships will be awarded. Each school invited to participate in the Beinecke Scholarship Program is permitted to make a single nomination each year.
